What should be done if there is leukoplakia of the vulva?

Patient's question:

I am not married yet. Recently, after a physical examination, I was told that I have leukoplakia of the vulva. Is this condition serious? Will it affect my future pregnancy? Please ask: What should I do if I have leukoplakia of the vulva?

Doctor's answer:

Vaginal leukoplakia requires attention to vaginal hygiene. Use lukewarm water to cleanse the vagina twice daily. Avoid using medications as detergents to irritate the vaginal area. If cervical inflammation or vaginal inflammation is present, seek early treatment to reduce the stimulation of vaginal discharge on the vaginal skin. Pathological sectioning may be necessary if needed to confirm the diagnosis.
Patients with vaginal leukoplakia should treat themselves well and avoid psychological stress. Maintain a balanced diet with plenty of vegetables and fruits. If the condition worsens, seek medical attention promptly. The recurrence of vaginal leukoplakia severely affects women's health. Patients should pay attention to follow-up examinations after menstruation, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, we hope that female patients can receive standardized treatment.
